Iwata says more unannounced third-party Wii U games will come
The Wii U is not in a good position when it comes to third-parties – this is well-known. The system is missing out on major sports titles, other multiplatform releases, and big publishers such as EA have started to move away from the system.
Nintendo president Satoru Iwata doesn’t sound too concerned about the situation. Speaking during the company’s E3 2013 analyst briefing, Iwata said that “more unannounced titles will come.” He feels that an improved first-party lineup – something that Nintendo is now addressing – will lead to more efforts from third-parties.
When it comes to third-party software, this slide shows a list of games that have already been announced.
It is not my position to mention which titles each third-party developer will release in the future. However, more unannounced titles will come. We hope to revitalize the platform with our strong first-party lineup, and then an enriched third-party software lineup will follow.
